Ruben Dias's ex-girlfriend appears to target Maya Jama and Man City star in new song about 'creating a monster' after couple hard-launched their new relationship

Ruben Dias’ ex-girlfriend has appeared to brand the Manchester City star a ‘monster’ after he went public with his new flame Maya Jama.

Revealing her real name as Mariana Goncalves, April Ivy shared a video showcasing a snippet of her new song, in which she delves into the themes of a past relationship and refers to her ex-partner as a ‘danger’.

While not explicitly mentioning Dias in her music, the timing is quite striking considering Jama’s recent video featuring the two of them heading to her residence in a car earlier in the week.

Dias and Jama have been secretly dating for months after meeting at the European Music Awards (EMAs) in November.

The footballer had been romantically involved with the Portuguese pop sensation, Ivy, from 2018 to 2021, during which they resided together in Manchester following his transfer to England for £61 million.

However, they reportedly split over lifestyle differences. Portuguese magazine Flash! reported after the split that Dias’ had desired a ‘more discreet’ life, which clashed with his former love’s ‘exuberance’.

Now Ivy has appeared to take aim at Dias in an upcoming single, singing on her Instagram page: ‘I saw a picture. You guys look so good together. The both of you, you both look so happy. Just as everyone says, I created a monster.

‘He learned everything with me, then became a danger and left. 

‘To give some context, what you see doesn’t come from thin air. I know you’re going to love what was tiring me.

‘What he wears, I bought. His perfume, I gave. His favourite song, I showed. He is me. Keep him now, he’s yours.’

Dias and Ivy reportedly split after a holiday to Greece in the summer of 2021.

Since then he has also linked up with Love Island star Arabella Chi, having reportedly started dating in September 2023 after meeting through mutual friends. 

Arabella would reportedly jet in from Ibiza to spend time with him and they went public in November 2023 when they shared pictures of the Eiffel Tower together. 

‘Ruben and Arabella are trying to keep their relationship under wraps because it’s early days,’ a source told The Sun. ‘But they had the best time together in Paris and seem to be really falling for each other.’

However, that romance came to an end after just three months. 

And so it is that the 28-year-old has ended up with Love Island host Jama. 

The presenter, 30, has been seen at multiple football games over the last few months to watch Dias live in action for Man City. 

Their romance was finally confirmed after they were seen being affectionate at KSI’s Baller League in April.

Just a day before, she supported Dias at Wembley as Manchester City triumphed 2-0 against Nottingham Forest in the FA cup semi-finals.

The Love Island host took her whole family to Wembley to support him.

During the last international break in March, Maya flew to Lisbon to watch him play for the Portuguese national team.

She was pictured in the stands at the José Alvalade Stadium to witness Portugal’s 5-2 victory over Denmark in the second leg of their Nations League quarter-final.

The presenter was seen with a friend and glasses of wine in a VIP hospitality box – usually reserved for friends and family of players.

Maya then posted a picture on social media of the two celebrating together at their romantic fireside retreat at 3:30am the following morning.

The snap is believed to have been taken at the footballer’s home in the Cascais region of Portugal, with a vast swimming pool and fire pit glimpsed in the picture.

They reportedly started dating in December, having met at the EMAs in November, which took place in Manchester – where Dias plays.

Rumours of the couple’s romance only intensified in the days following Valentine’s Day after Jama shared the bouquet of roses she received on her return to the UK from Cape Town following the conclusion of the 2025 Love Island All Star season.

The pair were then spotted wearing matching Cartier ‘LOVE’ bracelets, which were listed at £5,050 on the store’s website.

Jama was seen wearing the pricey gift in the Instagram post before Dias was spotted wearing the same item as he arrived for training ahead of City’s Champions League play-off second leg against Real Madrid in February.
